Lamont Phillips, an oven operator and the president of the local union.

I'm sure the majority non union employees are just as thrilled as this idiot. /s

Oh Lamont, you big baby. If it wasn’t important to you you could have gone and done something else.

Yet somehow I doubt that’s your true feelings.

” So, I’m like, ‘OK. Close it down.’” “

= So I’m like, close it down dude.
I mean it’s not like I’ll starve or
anything, man. Anyway, I’ve been
meaning to take time off, but
now I’ll get unemployment,
maybe some welfare, food
stamps. Oh no, wait, already
got the stamps, dude.

Anyway, this is cool man.
Work is a real drag. It’s
about time I got what I
deserve. Screw those
rich bastard making more
than me, right?

In exchange for the pay cut, the union was to be given 25% ownership in the company.

When Obama first got elected it took the LATimes nearly six months to get to this propaganda level with their failed attempt at peddling “Funemployment”...
